Used to be good at miniature painting back when I played warhammer a lot, but I haven't really painted anything in years.

Everyone has their own niche. I've seen some ballin' miniatures. I really like this one!

Your post kind of seems to suggest that this was a long-distance relationship. Staying up on skype etc etc... I don't think it was video games that ended this relationship. Videos games might have been a scape goat, but not having an intimate relationship where you're actually there for each other and can help each other was what really happened.

I could be reading into this too much, but yeah, you didn't mention once any in person interaction with your boyfriend lol.

You're probably right, a lot of long distance relationships never work out. Then again, some relationships are defined by their being long distance. Bout the only time they enjoy each others company is after a 2-3 month long break from each other. It just makes it that much more enjoyable when you meet them again

I know, most of my first year of being married was spent apart from each other. Military ftw

my fiancee enjoys games like The Sims a lot, but I actually got her into Starcraft 1 midway through 2009, when we first met, and then it was pretty logical to buy her Starcraft 2 when it came out. We play together a lot and she plays on her own even more.

At the end of the day, if your partner isn't the type of person to like videogames, then either you have to hope you can help them understand that gaming is just another hobby/leisure activity like any other.
